"Vote early, vote often" - Part 2

The nation is, in fact, doomed.

I was sitting in the cafeteria at work yesterday triumphantly eating my lunch after having just cast my ballot in the Primary election when I was forced to stop in mid-chew. A table full of young’uns (they were in their early 20s… *sheesh* when did that become “young” to me!?) was chatting amongst themselves amiably and the line of discussion went something like this:

Girl #1: “There’s this show about a guy who escapes from prison using a map that he had tattooed al over his body.

Girl #2: “Is that a real story?”

Now I know that I’m an idealist and all, but on the day when we have some pretty important choices to make about our future, can we at least make a show of thinking/talking about them? Furthermore, who in their right mind thinks that Prison Break might be based on a true story, or be a reality show?

Good Lord!!
